• Notes

  Located in Gardiner's Bay at East Hampton, Long Island, Gardiner's Island has an area of 3300 acres. It was purchased from the Indians in 1639 by Lion Gardiner (I5991663), an English colonist, who, in settling there, is said to have established the first English settlement in what is now the state of New York. The island has remained in possession of the Gardiner family, but its status was under discussion in the early 1980's. Legend holds that the pirate William Kidd buried some of his treasure on the island in 1699.
